that's more of a dating thing I think when people are less comfortable being themselves and more trying to do everything you think the other person wants you to do (assuming you like them and want to become intimate), my wife never says I don't know anymore.
It's usually, what do you think about going to x to eat or hiking today or kayaking or camping, or going to the beach, whatever it is she wants to do to which I take my hint that's what she wants to do and I usually agree. and i do the same with her.
Open ended questions of women, it just starts a problematic exchange that is frustrating to no end for us and just run of the mill for them. I usually go with "How would you like to...(hump, go to the zoo, go out to eat, bone, grab lunch, screw that sort of thing). Have an idea before you ask a woman out, well that's my suggestion anyway after 10 years of marriage and now 3 years of freedom and dating.
No, I had one serious girlfriend years back for 3 years but I was 18-21, she was a psycho. Had another live with me. Both were hot, the second one, she got too into the feminism shit. Kicked her out. I heard she was dead. Not even joking, wouldn't be surprised. You guys that have been married double the years longer than I am alive, let me tell you something, dating aint what it used to be lol (I'm sure)...being single is IN ! Unless you DO find a really cool lady.
The girl I'm hanging out with right now took me to a BBQ last weekend and is suggesting plans for the 4th this weekend. I hate making plans so this works out well for me.
I honestly don't care. I can eat pretty much anything at any time. I can't remember the last time I've been "in the mood" for a particular type of food. Our conversations typically go like this:
Me: "Where do you want to eat?"
Her: "I don't care, you pick."
Me: "Ok, how about restaurant A?"
Her: "I don't want to eat there."
Me: "Ok how about restaurant B?"
Her: "Nah I had that type of food 2 weeks ago."
Me: "Ok, how about we go to restaurant C"
Her: "Nope, 14 years ago in a different state I went to one of those places and got food poisoning."
Me: "Ok, why don't you pick?"
Her: "I don't understand why you never make decisions. What is so difficult about picking a restaurant? If you can't pick one, then I will pick one. Lets go to restaurant A."
Me: "Ok. But just to be clear, you are mad at me for not picking a restaurant but yet we are going to the first restaurant I picked?"
Her: "Shut up!"

just so y'all know.... there's SO MANY GUYS like this too!
It's more of a personality/confidence/intelligence thing than a gender thing.
You're right because I can definitely be indecisive. For me it's just personality, though. I'm a low-maintenance dude... bring me wherever and toss me a beer and I'll have a good time. It's definitely not intelligence because I'm like.. smart, man.
Along Came Polly, which was pretty much a typical tedious Ben Stiller romantic comedy other than it introduces the phrase sharted (to me at least) which I try and work into conversations as often as possible and has Jennifer Anniston in her prime.
anyway, it reminds me of the scene where Stiller has IBS or something and hates spicy foods, yet he doesn't want to rock the boat at all and agrees to go to some Afghan restaurant.
When I was single I could order food or make a frozen pizza or a couple of sandwiches for dinner and be just fine. Now? We need salads. Salads validate any meal supposedly.
The signs are easy to follow because they are steeped in tradition and history. Make a plan, convey the plan, execute the plan. Game over.

but we've been married 17 years.
Q: Did you hear about the guy who finally figured out women? A: He died laughing before he could tell anybody.
/nuff said!
What do we want? We don't know!
When do we want it? NOW!!!!!!!
After marriage men are not capable of making social plans.
It's a great system, but it works.
I dont care
whatever you want.
Whats the 4th?
No.

If she works out and has a fit body and big fake boobs, put up with it. Otherwise dump her.

the ensuing scene was pretty funny.

Jay Cutler opened up a bar? Who knew?

lol didn't even think about that
"Do you have a preference for which way we take to get there?"
"No. Doesn't matter to me."
[later, sitting in traffic]
"I don't know why you went this way. I figured you were going to go the other way, so I didn't say anything."

Girls ask guys out?
Eh it wasn't a date. Just a hang out with a girl I already knew.
If it is just friends hanging out then I agree with Berrylish, I think I have had as many guy friends reply that way as women have.
